Last month, August, Inside Showbiz team thru Camille called me to list down and email all celebrities I've styled with... I don't have a clue who will I put on the list because I might choose different genre, age or market, or relevance... only to find out she was actually brewing something huge for me!

15 Young and Upcoming celeb, 3 Networks, and in 1 magazine, which I already had a teaser as 15 X 3 X 1. The shoots were held in 3 different dates and some are tight, and I owe it alot to H&M special mention to Ms Nikki which majority of the clothing came from it. I can't, of course, be more thankful to Ms Marge of Tees & Things for some of the clothing as well.

I watched Diary ng Panget (DNP) and I was an instant fan of #JaDine love team. And of course major crush on James Reid and when I got a text from Camille that its gonna be the same cast in DNP to TBYD I go ballistic! Hahaha #dreamsdocometrueevenpakiligmomentlang

We are asked to prep 1 solo layout and 1 group here are some of the photos including the cover inset of Nadine and James.

Basically the requirement of the shoot is that it should be all in casual denims... I tried to style different looks and use of denim to somehow incorporate personalities from casual chic, relaxed sporty to dressy Jane.

Thanks to my styling team, who even made it big on the 3rd day of shoot, thanks alot gurls!

It's Asian Dragon Magazine Jul-Aug 2014 Issue, and it featured the Young Fashion Section in Sporty Luxewear. I just love anything from sporty, casual chic to very athletic look, because its comfort, ease at the eyes, and it's a ready-to-go look! When pulling high end brands its part of the styling job to really carefully inspect and all goods are in proper handling, even during the actual shoot.

Check out the look that made in the print! By the way, so far my fave for the "real people" styling editorial, to date.

Star Studio Magazine Team called me to style for a special magazine story ft. Be careful with my heart's cast. Maya's baby book is a special feature and guidebook for pregnant and mom-to-be. It also featured new and exclusive photos inside from the cast. I love to do this kinda of project since as a stylist I believe I need to be exposed in different kind of styling as well, plus who doesn't love this kinda tv show?

On cover: Maya is wearing A/X Armani white ruffle detailed dress.

Left photo only: Luke is wearing blue sweater from Springfield and gray pants from River Island. Maya in A/X Armani Gray stretch dress, Sir Chief in A/X Armani striped top and navy blue pants from River Island.

Special thanks to Star Studio Team special mention to Ms Fatima and Ms Grace, Parfois, A/X Armani, Springfield and River Island.

Thank you guys for always trusting the styling team for this huge project.

I just wish to include Music Album Cover and inner photo as part of my folio because its really very exciting, and also challenging to do projects as this since these will be in the Music Shelves forever! The challenge also that it has to be a classic look that it won't look dated overtime or at our time, appropriate for the target market of the artist's music genre and importantly, its the artist personality as well.

I owe this cover to the MCA People specially Sir Mark and Sam for the trust and unwavering support to the my styling team.

Check out the artists and pick your music genre guys, all are available in all music bars, stores nationwide!

I just love July, one probably is that I had several editorials and I owe it alot to the editors and publications who entrusted me with the job. I can't wait for next month since it's gonna a celebrity overload... but for now, its a 60's Mod fashion from Aline skirt, Mod shift dress with a quirky approach.

I had to mention Gigi, aka Melu-Jeen for being a savior, stepping as a hairstylist for the day.

When I had a go signal under Ms Liza, SW EIC, to proceed with the cover story ft our Phil Rep Jodilly Pendre and Katarina Rodriguez, 1st and 2nd runner up respectively of Asia's Next Top Model Season 2, I'm literally cramming to book them for the shoot. Kata was in Singapore and Jodi in Taiwan and how will this be possible? I had to manage the sched and finally it work!

The original concept was to made them fight like a battling to be on top since we had 2 rep coming from the Philippines. To add character and make it realistic, why not add prosthetics, special effects like bruises, cuts, and bumps and little little blood.... exciting!

Its Fall inspired Color Therapy but during the pull, I had difficulty pulling coloful dress and opted to go with the Couture Gowns and had a twist - 1 can wear Haute Couture, and 1 can wear streetstyle Couture gown. Its Couture VS Streetstyle! Check out the moodboard I made from hair to make up to the feel of the shoot. By the way, super love the make up from Anthony Vaccarello Fall 14 and prosthetics - NAILED!
